Good Bye

I need to say our marriage is through
For I am no longer in love with you.
I loved you so hard and long
But even I am not so strong.

To love a man that cannot love
Who has to push and shove
As his way to show me he cares.
The Lord has finally answered my prayers.

You see I no longer hate you
However I am still a bit blue
As our friendship is what was lost
Marriage to you came with great cost.

You are the man you are
I am no longer yours to mar.
Move on with your life
For I am no longer your wife.

I am free to live as I want
I no longer want to taunt
But just want you to let go
So I can have one less woe.

Have you not a clue?
I am so over you.
You see I no longer cry
It is time to say Good Bye.

Kristy, You made it through it! Though the times were difficult, you found yourself, a sweet southern belle, who with happiness shall dwell. Congratulations. This is a very strong write. Well done. Lovingly, Dane
